  • REVIEW – Older park, front area needs mowing and looks cluttered but don’t let that stop you from staying there. The back is mowed and nice. Very quiet, Owners are a sweet older people. I couldn’t get my cable going so I called the office and the Husband of the Mom & Pop park came to our RV to help. When I opened the door he was standing there with two fresh cucumbers and said “Peace offering?”  He then got the cable going straight away. Nice place right on Nebraska Highway 20. If you are looking for breakfast try the “Bunkhouse” just north of the RV Park.

  • REVIEW – Gravel pads, full hook up, no cable, no WIFI but the place redeems itself because of the historic location. Nothing other than the National Park Visitors center nearby, but you can visit Scotts Bluff and the National Historic Sit there as well. Shopping is also in Scotts Bluff 24 miles north of the RV Park. Make sure you check out the Pink Place Bar and Grill in McGrew 6 miles north of the park. The bar building is 100 years old, the food is bar food with really good burgers and fries and Prime Rib night on Friday nights. Chimney Rock Pioneer Crossing RV Park redeems itself over and over again with the stunning view of famous Chimney Rock National Historic Site.
